Produced between 1992 and 1994, the 320CE was built in limited numbers in the traditional manner of classic Mercedes-Benz coupés and convertibles, being the very best specified and most luxuriously equipped model in the range.

Outwardly similar to its smaller-engined siblings, the 320CE was powered by the 3,199cc, Type M104, 24-valve, twin-overhead-camshaft six producing 220bhp, an output good enough for a top speed in excess of 145mph in the case of the manual transmission version, with the automatic not far behind.

Variable inlet valve timing made for increased torque and a flatter curve, enhancing flexibility.

A driver's-side airbag and anti-lock brakes and were standard equipment on the 320CE and most cars were delivered with the four-speed automatic transmission like the example offered here.

This particular 320CE coupé has been equipped with air conditioning from new while other noteworthy features include a sunroof, alloy wheels and a full AMG body kit.
